my dumb ass hit a curb the other night, but there is no noticable vibration under 60mph. on highway speeds, however, the car shakes pretty bad, and the steering wheel vibrates even worse. although i didnt look too closely, there doesnt seem to be and visible dents to my rim(s) on the passenger side. is there anything i can do myself or anything an auto shop can do for relatively cheap that will fix the problem. im guessing its just a very slightly bent rim.

Could be your control arm(I think that what it called)?
Best to bring it in to a wheel place so they can look at it. Edit: Could it also be that your alignment is out? which will cause the steering wheel to vibrate? I'm just throwing ideas out. So dont shoot me...
